Server Plugins

Server plugins:

  • PAZ - Analyzer

  • PIR - Interactive

  • PDD - Dashboard Designer

Analyzer Reports is an intuitive analytical visualization tool that filters and drills down into business information contained in Pentaho analysis data sources. Use Analyzer Reports if you want to compile data quickly in an interactive environment, perform advanced sorting and filtering of your data, and want to see chart visualizations that include conditional stop-lighting.

Creating a dashboard in Dashboard Designer is as simple as choosing a layout template, theme, and the content you want to display. In addition to displaying content generated from Interactive Reports and Analyzer, Dashboard Designer can also include these content types.

  • Charts: simple bar, line, area, pie, and dial charts created with Chart Designer

  • Data Tables: tabular data

  • URLs: Web sites that you want to display in a dashboard panel

Dashboard Designer has dynamic filter controls, which enable dashboard viewers to change a dashboard's details by choosing different values from a drop-down list, and to control the content in one dashboard panel by changing the options in another. This is known as content linking.
